hey Zordo how much for a 2inch lift for a 2013 D40 delivered to st marys nsw 2760. Only have a alloy bulbar upfront and driving lights, and probably a winch when I get the $$$ Don't really carry anything in the rear just load it up with dogs camping and fishing gear probably once a month. I will be doing a fair bit of off roading but nothing extreme. Any suggestions tips would be much appreciated
Thanks

G'day Zordo,

After recommendations and pricing for 2" lift for for my 2012 STX D40 V9X. Currently have alloy Bullbar, snug top canopy with redback drawers fitted. Have airbags fitted at the moment to assist levelling for towing 2t scissor lift on a trailer which I do shitloads of klms. Tub and drawers are always loaded up and it bottoms out regularly. I'm keen to get it on the beach here and there. Located in Newcastle so any recommendations where to have fitted would be great.. Thanks in advance. Mark

Hi Mark.

No problems I would go with H/D Bluemax leaves, bushes, shackles, u/bolts,
Dobinson coils & Lovells shocks.
This a good kit that offer a good ride & load carrying.
Full kit delivered to Newcastle is $1525
Kit includes fitting instructions & phone support
Can not help with a fitter in newcastle but any mechanic should be able to fit the gear.
Or you could most of the fitting yourself except for the front coil changeover
Cheers

Cheers John, I will give your office a call after New Years and organise. Thanks for yor help. Mark

Hi all
i got a 2" lift fitted by John on the 23rd of December and would like to highly recomend him to any one considering doing this. the new springs and shocks have transformed the D40. ride and handling is awesome corners better and no longer hits the bump stops when going over speed humps. took it for an alignment after at Pedders and they said i didnt need the bushes to align, so all up it cost me less than i had budgeted for. i have been 4WDing twice scince then and i am very happy.
if you are looking for a lift for your fourby, go see John he knows his stuff.

great bloke with a crazy dog.

What kit do you have?

Hey Zordo,
I've heard that your the man to ask when it comes to suspension upgrades.
I have a 2010 ST D40 Thai and want a 2" lift for it. It will have a bullbar and winch very soon on the front and rear will only carry heavy loads on the rare occaision. Mostly a daily but want to hit the bush and do touring so comfort is a must for the wife and kids. Can you quote me a DIY kit delivered to 3064, Vic.

Thanks in advance.

Hey John

Was wondering if there is any shocks that are Remote reservoir shocks to suit a D22 with 2.5"lift?

Thanks

Is it something I need to measure open and closed length on the suspension to find a match?Or is it just gonna be aars cause of the type of shock

I think the main reason is lack of room in the front end.
The Navara shock is quite a short shock
